倫敦爲奧運做最後準備

London is welcoming around 10,000 athletes, hundreds of thousands of visitors and a worldwide television audience for the formal opening of the Olympic Games Friday.

Organizers have dealt with a series of last-minute problems, including scrambling to deploy enough security personnel, after a private contractor reported problems putting together a large enough force.

Britain's Queen Elizabeth will officially open the games. The competition in 26 sports runs until August 12.2012年夏季奧運會將於星期五正式開幕，倫敦迎接大約1萬名運動員、數十萬名旅遊者和全世界的電視觀衆。

倫敦奧運組織者已經解決了最後時刻出現的一系列問題，包括確保配備足夠的安保人員，此前一個私人承包商表示在調集足夠安保人手方面存在困難。

英國女王伊麗莎白二世將宣佈倫敦奧運會開幕。到8月12日閉幕之前，奧運會將舉辦26個運動競賽項目。
